“…In this regard, a twoway data flow between the design and related parameters is essential for effective design decision making, thus giving rise to the need for a digital twin application. A digital twin can allow the evaluation of alternative design options at the ideation phase; the design concepts that fail to satisfy the intent of design in accordance with clients' set criteria or other compliance checking can be discarded [35,46]. Compliance checking may include checking for adherence to sustainability requirements or local building laws.…”

“…3) supported the claims made by Çıdık et al [45] and Rasheed et al [41] who argued that modeling BIM technologies cannot accommodate the dynamism required for design development and improvement. Several other authors have supported digital twin applications for design improvement through simulations and compliance checking [8,25,46,47]. However, this view was contradicted by two participants, who argued that although a digital twin can provide and maintain a comprehensive 3D model, it cannot improve the design and construction processes.…”

The concept of digital twins is proposed as a new technology-led advancement to support the processes of the design, construction, and operation of built assets. Commonalities between the emerging definitions of digital twins describe them as digital or cyber environments that are bidirectionally-linked to their physical or real-life replica to enable simulation and data-centric decision making. Studies have started to investigate their role in the digitalization of asset delivery, including the management of built assets at different levels within the building and infrastructure sectors. However, questions persist regarding their actual applications and implementation challenges, including their integration with other digital technologies (i.e., building information modeling, virtual and augmented reality, Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing). Within the built environment context, this study seeks to analyze the definitions and characteristics of a digital twin, its interactions with other digital technologies used in built asset delivery and operation, and its applications and challenges. To achieve this aim, the research utilizes a thorough literature review and semi-structured interviews with ten industry experts. The literature review explores the merits and the relevance of digital twins relative to existing digital technologies and highlights potential applications and challenges for their implementation. The data from the semi-structured interviews are classified into five themes: definitions and enablers of digital twins, applications and benefits, implementation challenges, existing practical applications, and future development. The findings provide a point of departure for future research aimed at clarifying the relationship between digital twins and other digital technologies and their key implementation challenges.

“…In the area of rehabilitative care, technology has evolved in the form of adaptive design devices to help ‘reassemble’ a disassembled human body (Joel et al, 2021). Similarly, technology has been employed to redesign homes as ‘smart homes’ to promote healthy living and a healthy environment (Gopinath et al, 2019). Certainly, technology intersects with persons and their health and encompasses these domains (Rajamani et al, 2021).…”

Undoubtedly, technology continues to permeate the world at an unprecedented pace. The discipline of nursing is not alien to this phenomenon as nurses continue to employ various technological objects and applications in clinical practice, education, administration and research. Despite the centrality of technology in nursing, it has not been recognised as a metaparadigm domain of interest in the discipline of nursing. Thus, this paper sought to examine if technology truly reflected a metaparadigm domain using the four requirements posited by Fawcett. Using these requirements, we examined the onto‐epistemology of technology in relation to nursing and conclude that technology potentially represents a distinct domain that intersects with nursing (particularly, from the humanities perspective). Also, technology encompasses some phenomena of interest to the discipline of nursing, demonstrates perspective‐neutrality, and is international in scope and substance albeit with some nuances which do not fit well with nursing onto‐epistemology. Put together, it is highlighted that technology intersects with the existing metaparadigm domains (person, health, environment and nursing) which positions it as a potential phenomenon of interest to the discipline of nursing requiring further work to articulate its position and role.

Modern systems supporting production processes are undergoing significant changes, which involve challenges related to the digitization of processes. Decision making is becoming more and more dependent on the analysis of various types of data and information from the production process. The 4th Industrial Revolution forces the transition towards new technologies, innovation and digital models also in manufacturing operations. One of the phenomena of Industry 4.0 is Digital Twin, whereby it is possible to analyze and simulate real-time different production variants from the real environment without directly interfering with the actual production process. Thanks to the use of Digital Twin, it is possible to optimize manufacturing procedures, detect physical problems faster and make a decision about a process change with smaller risks to achieve a new higher level of productivity. This paper will introduce the theoretical aspects connected with Digital Twin-driven approach in smart manufacturing and will emphasize its potential towards the application of new-generation information technologies in industry and manufacturing. The systematic literature research will be focused on the analysis of different application areas of Digital Twin in the modern industry. This paper will specify and highlight how manufacturing processes can benefit from the use of the Digital Twin concept.
